I'd love to see snail pets because I want to see what the artists do with their shells. :)

I would be so pumped if we had some kind of nudibranch-type pet o3o
I love the idea of snail pets, especially if the appearance of the shell could be radically different with the various colours, like suggested

Disclaimer: This is an image-heavy post, and I am completely unapologetic. You're welcome. :)
I love the idea of changing the shells for the different colors.
I just discovered the Imperial Volute shell (warning: huge image). I don't know what color it would be good for, but it looks amazing and I'd love to see it used for something. :D
Since there's so much variety to nudibrachs, it would be cool if the body shape and patterning changed for different colors, too. It would be almost a waste not to, and I think this would be the one pet where you could really get away with it and still have them recognizable as part of the same species.
Start with something like this more classically-sluggy one I posted before for the basic colors:

And then just go wild:

It might just be the perspective, but I love that this one is shorter and wider than the others, and kind of a triangle shape:

This one's amazing (and it's basically already hydrus irl) :
(Here, have some more pictures of the hydrus one because it's so amazing. Apparently it's a Bornella Anguilla.
Angelic? :

:o These look like chocolate-covered marshmallows:

And this one's like a cross between a slug and a guinea pig:

This one looks like neurons, but I still want to be its friend:

And finally, here's some nightmare fuel for you:

:D
(Going through these images is way too much fun. Someone needs to make me stop. Send help. D: )
[edit]
Oh god, I'm still doing it.
Look at this grumpy thing :D

What in the seven blue hells are you even talking about? No one is discussing reptiles here. At all. If you hate snails too or whatever, and they decide to make a snail pet, here's an idea: don't freaking get one, then.
I can't see myself with a snail pet on here, but it sort of depends on what they turn out to look like. I still support this idea.
I'm kind of wondering if their post is a joke since we get so many reptile/reptilian pet requests
oh the potential with the shells is huge!! this would be awesome :)

Ok I just zapped an Common There's so much potential for that pet alone if they just were to revamp it. I'm afraid to zap it into something else because they'd probably do an epic revamp overnight on it with my luck lol
Anyway.....I LOVE THIS IDEA SO MUCH. Everything is all feathers and fur, I'd love to see some shell action. So much potential for awesome.
I enjoyed your photo posts so much I feel dirty for looking at them. You could post that all day and I'll never complain...love it
I might be interested in this as well!
There are so many varieties of colored sea slugs. The creativity is endless. Biology is amazing :)
